Join John Paczkowski, Park Ecologist with Alberta Environment and Parks, for a presentation on grizzly bears in the Kananaskis Region and beyond.  John will describe the latest population census work for grizzly bear management in Area 5, which includes Kananaskis Country down to the Crowsnest Pass.  He will also lead a discussion on the aversive conditioning program in Kananaskis that, for twenty years, has aimed to reduce bear-human incidents by monitoring and conditioning Grizzly bears in the region.

Coffee is available and discussion encouraged.  Donations are welcomed.
